LI-STF model is designed to fill and seal Plastic and Laminated tubes. The Tube Filling Machine machine is suitable mainly for pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industry. This filling machine for Tube model is widely uses for filling of cream, ointment, gel, paste, balm and other similar viscous products by means of a volumetric dosing system.

Process Operation:

Our semi automatic tube filling machine model body is constructed with mild steel angle and plates duly painted to smooth finish and outer covered to Stainless Steel covers. The filling area contact parts made of Stainless Steel 304 quality steel including the hopper. The filling mechanism is mechanically driven with a positive suction pump assembly. syringe can be provided as per the fill volume of different variants one with each machine. No tube no filling process sensors connected to a pneumatic cylinder which enables filling only when the tube is sensed at the filling area. All pneumatic cut off device ensures clean cut off and ensures weight accuracy at all times.

The heating of the Lami or the Plastic tubes is done by a standard heater which has a capability of attaining max temperature up to 700°C during constant air flow is on. At the heating section the tube is lifted inside the heater part by which only the area to be sealed is heated without affecting the filled material. The sealing of the Lami and the plastic tube is done in a single station with pneumatic jaws which has provision of holding no in its made pockets. After the sealing the trimming if also done by pneumatic blades to give the tube a smooth finish.
Batch types of numeric 0 to 9 are provided with the machine extra types can be bought on request.

It is a partially automated machine that combines mechanical filling and sealing operations with minimal manual assistance — offering an affordable and efficient tube packaging solution between manual and fully automatic systems.

In a semi automatic machine, the operator manually loads tubes before automatic filling and sealing. Fully automatic machines handle loading, filling, sealing, and ejection without manual intervention.

They offer cost-effective mechanized tube packaging with professional sealing and consistent filling without high capital investment.
